Time to start on the 4040 dual disk drive.
I've removed the disk drives and stripped one down and given it a first clean. Everything seems to be there including the belt, the felt pad and the mechanism that moves the head.
Another clean tomorrow and I'll start the other one.

So, the #purists #claim "it's not the same without a real disk drive - the sound and the haptics ..." when it comes to #FloppyDisks and #DiskDrives and they're probably right.
But did you ever notice that this purism seems to be fixed on rotating disk media only.
I mean, no one ever says "it's not the same without loading from tape - the sound, the haptics, the endless waiting ..." or "it's not the same without 9 pin #DotMatrix #Printers - the noise, the paper jams ..."
think about it ... 🤔

HAH canadacomputers.com has 4TB SSD SATA drives on sale for less than I paid for 4TB spinning rust drives a few years ago. Prices have certainly dropped. Maybe time to go for two Gold 8TB spinning rust now. :).

@purism @nicolef @jeffcliff
Wow. What is happening to tech? Twelve years ago they Sony and Japanese #University were fitting 1TB on a flepping #Bluray!Has this #technology enjoyed a #trickleDown effort to the people or are the #technoFascists and Hollywood hoarding this tech for themselves now?
We are developing a taste for blood just reading about Bluray and knowing that #diskDrives are being systematically removed from the concept of computing.
